Have you ever thought of your place of work or business as a place of assignment and a ministry? If as a Christian business owner or employed professional, you still look at your place of work as just a place to work for money to meet your needs, then you need a mind shift. One tool which will help you achieve this shift is the book, An Epistle To The Apostles In The Marketplace.
The book an epistle to the apostles in the market written by apostle Arome Osayi and released in September 2020 is highly recommended for Christian professionals in all areas. The contents of the book gives you great insight on the reason you have been sent to the field or industry you work in. Reading this book will arm you with scripture backed principles and strategies on how to be an effective sent man or woman in the marketplace.
Arome Osayi is a servant of the Lord Jesus Christ with the mandate to strive for the rebirth of apostolic Christianity. He is the Setman of Remnant Christian Network (RCN) headquartered in Makurdi, Benue State, Nigeria with centers across Nigeria, Ghana, and the UK.
All his books are byproducts of his rich spoken ministry.
This book is a by-product of an intensive, double barrel apostolic ministry executed over the course of nearly two decades. The author, uniquely tutored in the school of the Spirit has been privileged to serve at the pleasure of Heaven’s Great King as an apostle both within the body of Christ and in the marketplace.
Drawing upon his intensive obedience and extensive experience, it has pleased the Lord for him to compose a treatise that would address those whose primary call is to serve as apostolic functionaries in the marketplace of the nations. This is because the harvest in the fields of the world is ripe but kingdom labourers are not yet rife. It is time for the Lord’s apostles in the marketplace to arise in faith and obedience and put the sickle in!
BELOW ARE SOME NOTEWORTHY EXHORTATIONS FOR THE APOSTLE IN THE MARKETPLACE:
– Being sent by the Lord into the marketplace is a result of the election of grace, not a human genius.
– To remain relevant as God’s apostle in the marketplace, you must always be ready and willing to take fresh instructions from Him.
– The instructions of God are loaded with the technology for appropriating the dimensions of God.
– God’s dimensions can be trapped on earth, in the marketplace, when His apostles build according to the measurements, blueprints and schematics of heaven.
– The dominion of God in heaven can be replicated in every square inch of the marketplace through the priesthood.
– Intensive consecration and extensive intercession must be in place at all times.
– The popular belief that those in the marketplace are exempted from the rigours of the priesthood is a corpulent lie of the devil.
– Ensure you make it a top priority to explore God nonstop like an astronaut explores space through prayer and ministry of the word. This is because the operational strategies that are needed can only be revealed by God.
– The apostle must learn to discover their God-given tools and how to use them proficiently. Once they discover how the tools work, the tools become theirs! The moment they are revealed to you they become yours. When they become yours, you become a person of stature.
– A person of stature can through direct interface with God change and override the laws that govern the marketplace.
This is why even when the odds are not serendipitously stacked for you and your natural resources are shut down, you can access a realm in God with resources that are limitless and cannot be hijacked by even the most vicious hounds of hell.
And then you can use the wisdom acquired to dominate your portion of the marketplace.
– God would continue to deal with you like a potter beats clay so that you can have enough capacity to host His wisdom and power and enough capability to accurately deploy them.
– Diligently guard your heart for in it are the boundaries of life. God measures how far a man can go by looking at the boundaries of his heart.
A person whose heart is enlarged through the discipline of the Holy Spirit would be given the capacity of a thousand people.
– It is not about numbers with God but about capacity. God would rather give one yielded person the capacity of one thousand people than give one thousand people the capacity of one man.
– God only backs what He inspires. He is not human so His utterances are sometimes made in direct opposition to our humanity. Whatever is not sourced from Him cannot be supported with His wisdom and power.
This is why every project that is not congruous with the pattern in heaven will be filled by another spirit that is not God’s.
– Note that under God and/or with God, you can only win by righteousness – even in the marketplace!
The book is available in various formats on digital and physical bookstores.
